Prospective Grad Student(Potentially) Heading to the U.K.
« on: May 26, 2017, 12:03:04 AM »
Hi all,

I am an American young professional who has bern admitted that to a grad program at the LSE and I just learned(earlier today) to St. Andrews.

I've studied abroad in the U.K. before a couple of months at a time. But if I go(I'm undecided) this will be my first time leaving in Britain for any serious amount of time.

So I figured I'd join to learn as much as I can.

Thank you for the warm welcome!

Did you?? How did I miss that? We were there at the same time judging by your timeline! I did my PhD 2003-2008, and post-doc until 2012!
